The Accounting Office website has a breakdown of all student fees. In addition to standard enrollment fees, international students must also pay nonresident tuition and capitol outlay fees. After you register for classes, you can login to your Student Portal to view your "Class Schedule and Fees" under My Records: 

International students must also pay the F-1 Health Insurance fee. Before classes start, our office will enroll you in this policy and post the fee to your account. You can view the amount in your Student Portal to when you click "Pay Fees" under Financial Aid & Fees: 

The F-1 Health Insurance payment is due by the first day of classes. If you haven’t paid this fee, ISP will place a hold on your account at the beginning of the semester. The hold will prevent you from making changes to your class schedule, registering for future semesters, or obtaining your degree/certificate.

Fees are listed as due (or delinquent) in your Student Portal when classes begin. While SRJC does not have a specific payment deadline, you must pay your fees before you will be allowed to register for classes again. Typically, registration starts in late November for the Spring semester, and in late April for the Fall semester. For example, if you begin your studies in August, you should pay your fees by November to ensure you’ll be allowed to register for Spring semester classes during your priority registration appointment. Because SRJC classes fill up quickly, this is especially important for international students, who must maintain their legal F-1 status by registering for 12 units in the Program of Study listed on your Form I-20.

Students can pay their fees online, via phone, by mail, or in-person. A complete list of acceptable payment methods is available on the Accounting Office website. If paying online in your Student Portal, the entire balance must be paid. If using another method, you can make partial payments until the balance is paid off.

If you cannot pay the total balance due before your priority registration appointment, you may request a payment plan online. With this option, you can pay 1/3 of your balance due, and be allowed to register for another semester of classes. The remaining amount will be due in two monthly installments of one third each. You will receive a monthly email reminder with the remaining balance.

Here is a sample to-do list for students who are on a payment plan:

1. April: Register for Fall classes
2. August: Pay the Fall health insurance fee
3. November: Setup payment plan, pay 1/3 of Fall tuition fees
4. December: Register for Spring classes
5. January: Pay the Spring health insurance fee
6. February: Pay 2/3 of Fall tuition fees
7. March: Pay 3/3 of Fall tuition fees
8. April: Pay Spring tuition fees and register for Fall classes

*Note that you cannot have two semesters worth of tuition fees combined on the same payment plan. You would need to pay off the first semesters’ fees and the first third of the second semesters’ fees before registering for a third semester of classes at SRJC. Payment plans may not be used to pay for fines like late library returns, athletic gear, or lab fees.

The refund deadline to drop your semester-length classes and be eligible for a refund/reversal of your tuition fees is listed on the Academic Calendar. However some of the smaller fees like Health Services are non-refundable after the first day of class. If you must withdraw from SRJC and drop all of your classes after the semester begins, you may submit a petition to Admissions & Records to request a fee reversal. 

Banking for International Students - This guide provided by CreditDonkey covers the basics of banking, credit cards, and finance for international students.

Unfortunately, international students are ineligible to apply for state or federal financial aid though FAFSA. However, SRJC is proud to offer a number of financial scholarships to international students. More information can be found on our international scholarship website.
